in 25 years of driving I have never heard of or used winter tyres, now everyone is talking about them!!!!

Unless you live in the rurels will a cayenne on normal tyres not get you going?

I must admit I got a cayenne over a 5 series estate with winter in mind, but I am not going to put diffrent tyres on for diffrent seasons.

each to there own & if I get stuck I will eat humble pie

I was thinking an old Cayenne would make a good Winter shed. Can't need tyres changing too, surely?

been running Pirelli Scorpion snow & Ice on a KN for 3 years now;
having followed one on std tyres, I can certainly say I had more stop & go control !

Winter tyres have a different rubber composition that is designed to have a lower operating temperature, therefore offering more grip in colder weather. (I'm sure you all knew that)

I just wanted every advantage in the cold weather, incuding the snow and ice.
